This should be easy to fix with a lorem ipsum generator for feedback that generates rambling paragraphs that are not obviously completely lacking in syntax. Eventually the reader will give up. Something about communication skills would do fine, as long as it's sufficiently indecipherable. Just keep opening clauses and rarely closing them.

"While you are well-known as an excellent worker, sometimes those who are not engaged on the same workflows will, notwithstanding their own excellent and well-known communication skills, find it still time-consuming, if not time-inefficient, to reconfigure your updates into modes that are more familiar within their own teams' communications styles, thus necessitating an extra step of interpretation, that many, if not most, would be unwilling, or unable, to provide, at least within the timeframe that would accommodate both their own project and yours, as well as the percentages of their own workdays, and yours, that they can usefully devote, on a regular basis, to a teasing out, or a finessing, for a fuller understanding, such as you and they can both agree, as to what the final product, or product at any given stage of a deliverable, might contribute, both to the end-goals of their team and yours, balanced against the novel, or at least additional, requirements that would be entailed, or at least implied, if they were to adopt, or afford options for integrating with, the...

Isn't your first line projecting onto him something that he's not evidencing? Then the second line... is he picking and choosing? He names Christianity, it's not an ambiguous term.

I hope O.J. has a good alibi.

Because of a different philosophy (from yours).

Bodily autonomy? Is that a thing in the law? What's the justification for the drugs laws then?

Needs to do a Daniel Day Lewis and go make shoes for a bit instead? (or whatever DDL is doing)

why electrolytes?

Maybe that:

- being late (acting in "autumn") ...looks/feels similar to

- being on time (seizing the moment at the right point, in "summer")

...but has a nasty bite?

Boxing? Used to be much more popular, to participate in, particularly in childhood.

Also consistent with "men had a greater reduction (24%) than women (8%)."

From 'Immortality' by Milan Kundera:

"In our world...it is difficult for the individual to reinforce the individuality of the self...There are two methods for cultivating the uniqueness of the self: ...addition ...and subtraction. .... Let me put it another way: a mere love for showers can become an attribute of the self only on condition that we let the world know we are ready to fight for it." (Part 3 > Addition and subtraction - Pages 111, 113; Faber & Faber edition, 1991)

If you find Kundera's words make sense, then while PG may be logically correct, the impulse to add to identity is rooted in our own pride. It will not be easily beat: 'the sin of pride' (nowadays called egotism) is a strong, persistent force, that we have always struggled to hold in check, but has followed Man as closely as a shadow - which it may be said to be. It could even be seen as a shadow in the sense used in a 'Wizard of Earthsea', where the shadow is a threat, with its own intent.

"You've got to meet the reader where they are....Years later, the same pages burst with insight when I read them. " - Thanks for this, I find it is a great way of phrasing it, and gets to the heart of much about both education and communication.

I believe the account has them sailing the other way: down the Red Sea. They pass Bojador eventually, but in the opposite direction, which would be quite different, I would think (for encountering winds, etc).

Maybe you're being too hard on yourself? I mean your expectations may be too high? It has good reviews there, and seems pretty creditable. I liked the first chapter, which I've just read. I think I'd be happy with it. Lots of famous authors have written many more books than the books they are known for. And those are the famous ones! The attrition rate is high. In your situation, I would seek to find out what 'normal' is and then I'd measure myself against that.
